Second week: baby cats began to crawl well at age 7 – 14 days. Cat's eye began to open at the age of 8 – 11 days (although can not see clearly). As far as possible avoid forced open the eyelid because baby cat has not been ready to accept its sense of light. The retina of the eye begins to perfect 5 weeks.

Fourth week: baby cats began to appear active play around with his brother and began to learn to leave the "nest". Usually the parent cat at this time began to leave her child for a short period of time. Vision and hearing the kitten continues to increase. Although at this point the kitten could've started licking his fur itself, but the female is usually still licking his son.

Week five: at this age the vision already full grown, parent has already started to wean her son so that additional feed can already start is given (not all kittens respond alike and it takes patience). Walk began when playing with his brother with the clawing and pouncing. Cats began to be introduced with a drink da sandbox toilet.
